The World And The Sea: A ComparisonCategory: The Sentimental. Like the world and its dread changes Is the ocean when it rages, Sometimes full and sometimes shallow, Sometimes green and sometimes yellow. Salt the sea to all who drink it, Bitter is the world in spirit, Deep the sea to all who fathom, Deep the world and without bottom. Unsupporting in his danger Is the sea unto the sailor, Less sustaining to the traveller Is the world through which he'll wander. Full the sea of rocky places, Shoals and quicksands in its mazes, Full the world of sore temptation Charged with sorrow and destruction. Next: The Poor Man's Grave Previous: Sad Died The Maiden
